Hi there,

after encountering a similar problem on P2-350, I was able to get it
running again by disabling the EMM386 drivers VCPI-initialization. I'm
running M$-DOS 6.22 with it's EMM386, now setup as:
EMM396 NOEMS NOVCPI
I found that this was the solution when I tried not only to run a
program compiled by BP, but to run BP.EXE itself! 

Hope this helps.
